I got softlocked on one of the early wolf levels, which maeks me sad cause I can see from the screen shots that you guys made quite a bit! I'm very impressed. Playing this at 5am procrastinating on work hits deep tho, my wolf and cat are fighting :pray:
Cool little game, I loved the art and game mechanics! Growing the cat to be large enough to push the block was really funny to me =) . It would be nice to have an end card, since the black screen after the wolf level was very abrupt.
I'm glad you liked it! I'm afraid that the black screen after the wolf level was a bug though... Can you tell me about how many levels you played before getting to that black screen?
It happened after the second level where I played as the wolf. I tried playing the game again and this time it went blank (and silent) after the third level. So it seems to be kind of random?
We just uploaded the Windows + Mac builds, try it there! Web build is gonna be the buggiest haha.
